Tonight, my husband asked me to subtitle a youtube video he would like to show during a talk so it was time to try a site I've heard about recently: UNIVERSAL SUBTITLES.

It's incredibly easy. You sign up, click CREATE, ADD SUBTITLES, watch pieces of 8 seconds and start typing the translation, you then sych it , review it, and can share it via facebook, twitter, send it to people via e-mail or even grab the embed code for publishing.

But it's been for a good reason. July is a school holiday in Brazil and my husband and I decided to go on a trip with the kids.

Our travel destination? We started off in Diamantina, Minas Gerais, historical town, home of wonderful houses, steep streets and great food. Then, we got away from the cold weather to discover the wonders of the paradisical Santo André beach, in Bahia. Our last stop was Trancoso.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YByW23xjq54

I'd like to thank Andressa Cardoso for the invitation to present a session with her this coming August in a conference in Argentina. We've decided to talk about how WEB 2.0 can transform the "homework experience".

I'm also using the opportunity to meet Argentine Webheads, teachers I've been in contact with since 2006 but never had the chance to meet f2f. Argentina, here we go.

WELCOME!
